“today I am breathing through fatigue, fear and feeling overwhelmed.

I breath because when I breath, I am reminded that I am alive.

I am reminded that to be able to fill my body with air
means I have the ability to keep going.

I am reminded that my time on earth may be short
but it can be powerful if I dedicate it to love and fairness.

when I breath
I am reminded of Mary Oliver when she wrote,

‘tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one
wild and precious life?’

so I breath
and let my breath
turn into a smile that says back to her

‘as much as I can.’
~@cleowade, how to breath when you want to give up
